Solar panels — much like air conditioning, two-car garages and granite countertops — are quickly becoming a standard feature in new home designs. Consumer demand for photovoltaic power is soaring, and home builders throughout the country are responding by incorporating solar power in new home construction.

California isn’t the only state where solar power and photovoltaic panel installations are becoming a standard in new home construction. Home builders in Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, Texas and many other areas of the country already offer solar power for new home construction. For builders in many new communities, solar energy isn’t just an option — it’s a standard home feature. Add solar energy to your home builds with the UMA Solar for Home Builders Network.
